Since a few of the responders in this thread are afflicted with ringing in the hears I thought that the following might be of interest.
Tinnitus sufferers have reported some relief taking one of these supplements or drug:
melatonin
zinc citrate or zinc methionine
Cytotec (misoprostol)
As usual check with your caregiver before trying supplements.
